We have a package for each season

Which one is your favorite?

We have water adventures in the summer, apple cider-making in the fall, and snowshoeing in the winter. When will you visit?

Make Summer Awesome Packages

Summer is about adventure. It’s about trying new things like yolo boards, discovering waterfalls and hidden coves, or spotting a moose or eagle in its natural setting. Summer is also a great time to discover the one and only Cabot Trail.

When you're done adventuring, enjoy a wholesome meal made from our garden's ingredients and relax in your private hot tub.

Cabot Shores offers so many things to do and see that the time will fly by. So pack up your pets and the people you love and come to our little oasis by the sea for at least two nights, maybe three -- or even more! Summer is awesome!

Fall Cider-Making Packages

Fall is here! And so are our cider-making packages!

As the trees turn all shades of red and yellow, our orchard's apples ripen and sweeten. The crispness in the air can be felt in fall's pleasant temperatures along the shores of Cape Breton Island.

Perfect time for a Cider-Making Getaway!

We had an excellent stay! We stayed in the tiny house and got the hot tub as an addition - the house was an adorable little cabin, very clean and had everything we needed (mini fridge, microwave and more!). The hot tub was worth the addition! Paul and the staff were so considerate, he even called me before we arrived and let me know how the roads were and to make sure I knew how to get to the tiny house since we were probably arriving after dark. I can’t say enough good things! We will definitely be back!

My husband and I got married at Cabot Shores last October, after staying there multiple times in the past and falling in love with the scenery and food!! Paul was amazing to deal with leading up to the wedding! I was definitely a needy bride lol and he was always so patient and helpful with everything. The whole thing went off without any issues at all and my guests had a great time and raved on and on about the food! We are huge out door people and loved the whole vibe ! We can’t wait to go back again soon and make more wonderful memories at this slice of heaven in our favourite place in the world, Cape Breton !!

An unforgettable experience for a family trip. A yurt experience is more than just lodging, especially if you have young children. What is most impressive of all is the owner and his wife, who are so kind and affectionate.

Stayed in the Phoenix Dome for 2 nights and had the most wonderful experience. The dome was lovely and stayed warm through the night. The highlight of our stay was the food. My husband has been a chef for 20+ years and was blown away by the quality of the food. We had dinner one evening and the salmon was absolute perfection. We were lucky enough to be the only guests for breakfast so they cooked us a few items instead of the buffet and we enjoyed every bite. Hands down the best scrambled eggs I have ever eaten! The staff were so wonderful, kind and accommodating. We would love to return and spend more time here exploring the trails and relaxing on the beach. Thank you to everyone at Cabot Trail for such a wonderful experience!

Hot tubs were great, overlooking the gorgeous water view. Yurt was super comfortable, very spacious, and even when the fire died while we were sleeping, we stayed cozy and warm - the bedding was superb. Recommendation for Red River Trail was great, and we enjoyed the hike very much.

The staff at Cabot Shores actively took opportunities to make our stay relaxing and enjoyable. Our Mongolian Yurt was comfortable with the wood stove and outside hot tub. Would strongly recommend calling these fine folks and discussing your stay with them.

"A tree top village with Smurf-like domes rising out of the forest and Mongolian yurts in Nova Scotia? Indeed! Cabot Shores on Cape Breton Island entices you to embrace your nomadic roots and connect to nature. You can stay in one of the colourful yurts or opt for a geodesic dome raised up off the ground. Take in the lake views and the Atlantic waters on both sides, while the smell of cedar fills the air. Be sure to have your camera ready to snap a moose photo (they love it there)."

"Already Planning our Next Visit"

Yurt was warm and cozy. When we arrived there was a fire going and the outdoor hot tub was just right. The main lodge was very welcoming and open. The food at the bistro was absolutely delicious.

"Thanks for the Memories!"

Cabot Shores was the best experience I've had in Nova Scotia. Paul, Barbara, and the rest of the staff are kind, virtuous, and attentive. Their facility is fantastic and will give you a truly unique experience in the highlands.

"Perfect Way to Unwind"

My fiancé and I stayed in the Eagle Dome for a couple days after our wedding. We ate both nights at the restaurant on site and our food was delicious! Breakfast in the morning was also a hit, very fresh and healthy. We rented a hot tub our second night and were able to enjoy it on the privacy was our own deck! So relaxing.

~Jessica, Stratford

"The Food is Amazing"

This is a great place to stay. The food is amazing and it was nice to eat something fresh and new, not the same old boring, unhealthy food so many places offer. I had curry and a choke cherry cheesecake! So good.

~ Amy, New York

Very nice place to spend a couple of nights in the nature! My wife and I enjoyed our stay.It might be a good idea to install a heater in the dome as it can get chilly at night.

We had a great stay in the Eagle Dome! We loved watching the sunset and sunrise, and being able to hear the waves from the ocean. Next time we would stay a few more days and prepare a bit better - we weren’t packed for off grid but we made it work. Outhouse was a few steps away, shower and toilet a short walk. We didn’t get the hot tub or use the sauna/other amenities but would certainly consider it next time.
